Section 3.4            Replacement of Fixtures.  Trustor shall not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, permit any of the Fixtures owned or leased by Trustor to be removed at any time from the Land or Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance, repair or in order to replace the Fixture with a Fixture of substantially the same quality, or is permitted to be removed by the Credit Agreement.

Section 3.5            Insurance; Condemnation Awards and Insurance Proceeds.

3




(a)   Insurance.  Trustor shall maintain or cause to be maintained with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance with respect to the Trust Property against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by Persons engaged in the same or similar business, of such types and in such amounts as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by such Persons.  Each such policy of insurance shall name Beneficiary as the loss payee (or, in the case of liability insurance, an additional insured) thereunder for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties.  In addition to the foregoing, if any portion of the Premises is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (or any amendment or successor act thereto) (the “Act’), then Trustor shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood insurance in an amount sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to such Act.

ARTICLE 4
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE

Section 4.1            Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee, or either of them, may, at their election, exercise any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:

(a)   Acceleration.  Subject to any provisions of the Loan Documents providing for the automatic acceleration of the Obligations upon the occurrence of certain Events of Default, declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby is expressly waived by Trustor), whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable.

(b)   Entry on Trust Property.  Enter the Trust Property and take exclusive possession thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto or located thereon.  If Trustor remains in possession of the Trust Property following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, Beneficiary or Trustee may invoke any legal remedies to dispossess Trustor.

(c)   Operation of Trust Property.  Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Trust Property upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary or Trustee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Beneficiary or Trustee deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Beneficiary in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.

(d)   Sale.  Institute proceedings for sale of the Trust Property, either by judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Trust Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels.  With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Trustor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.  At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of

4




possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Trustor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Trustor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Trustor.  Beneficiary or any of the Secured Parties may be a purchaser at such sale.  If Beneficiary or such other Secured Party is the highest bidder, Beneficiary or such other Secured Party may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to Beneficiary or such other Secured Party against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash.  In the event this Deed of Trust is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Trust Property is waived.

(e)   Receiver.  Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Trustor or regard to the adequacy of the Trust Property for the repayment of the Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Trust Property, and Trustor irrevocably consents to such appointment.  Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Trust Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.

(f)    Other.  Exercise, with respect to the Trust Property only, all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity.

Section 4.2            Separate Sales.  The Trust Property may be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may elect.  The right of sale arising out of any Event of Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.

Section 4.3            Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.  Beneficiary or Trustee shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in the Loan Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Trustor or others obligated under the Loan Documents, or against the Trust Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive.  No action by Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default.

Section 4.4            Release of and Resort to Collateral.  Beneficiary may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Trust Property, any part of the Trust Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by the Loan Documents or their status as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Trust Property.  For payment of the Obligations, Beneficiary or Trustee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Beneficiary may elect.

Section 4.5            Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, Trustor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee, all benefit that might accrue to Trustor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Trust Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default other than any notices specifically required to be given under any Loan Document, (c) all notices of Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s election to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy

5




or recourse provided for under any Loan Document, other than any notices specifically required to be given under any Loan Document, and (d) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.

Section 4.6            Discontinuance of Proceedings.  If Beneficiary or Trustee or any other Secured Party shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Beneficiary or Trustee or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Trustor, Trustee, Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Trust Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary and Trustee and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of Beneficiary or Trustee or any other Secured Party thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Loan Documents for such Event of Default.

Section 4.7            Application of Proceeds.  The proceeds of any sale of, and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Trust Property, shall be applied by Beneficiary (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by applicable law:

(a)   first, to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Trust Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation (1) receiver’s fees and expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, and (4) costs of advertisement; and

(b)   second, to the payment of the Obligations and performance of the Secured Obligations in the manner and order of preference provided under Section 12 of the Security Agreement.

Section 4.8            Occupancy After Foreclosure.  Any sale of the Trust Property or any part thereof in accordance with Section 4.1(d) will divest all right, title and interest of Trustor in and to the property sold.  Subject to applicable law, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property purchased.  If Trustor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Trustor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Trustor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.

Section 4.9            Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement.

(a)   Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Trustor.  All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Beneficiary or Trustee or any other Secured Party under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall, subject to any limitations thereon contained in any Loan Document, be payable on demand and shall bear interest from and including the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and excluding the date of reimbursement, at the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement (provided that following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, interest shall accrue on such sums at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) of the Credit Agreement), and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.

6




(b)   Trustor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or any claim under this Deed of Trust, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.

Section 4.10         No Beneficiary in Possession.  Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Beneficiary or any other Secured Party to be deemed or construed to be a “mortgagee in possession” of the Trust Property, to obligate Beneficiary or any other Secured Party to lease the Trust Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.

ARTICLE 5
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES

Section 5.1            Assignment.   In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Trustor in Section 2.1 of this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Beneficiary all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents.  This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Beneficiary shall have delivered to Trustor  the notice described in the last sentence of this Section 5.1, Trustor shall have a revocable license from Beneficiary to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents.  The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Trustor, Beneficiary, by written notice to Trustor to the effect that it intends to exercise remedies under any Loan Document or Article 4, may revoke such revocable license, provided such revocation shall be automatic in the event the Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.2            Perfection Upon RecordationTrustor acknowledges that Beneficiary has taken all actions necessary to obtain, and that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, first priority, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for such Leases.  Trustor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary’s interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be present and fully perfected, “choate” and enforced as to Trustor and to the extent permitted under applicable law, all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Deed of Trust, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action.

Section 5.3            Bankruptcy ProvisionsWithout limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Trustor and Beneficiary agree that (a) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a “security agreement” for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Deed of Trust extends to property of Trustor that comprises the Trust Property and was acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy.

Section 5.4            No Merger of Estates.  So long as part of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Trust Property shall not merge, but

7




shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Trustor, Beneficiary, any tenant or any third party by purchase or otherwise.

ARTICLE 6
SECURITY AGREEMENT

Section 6.1            Security Interest.  This Deed of Trust constitutes a “security agreement” on all Trust Property, a security interest in which may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement, to secure the payment of the Obligations and performance of the Secured Obligations, and agrees that Beneficiary shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such property.  Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Beneficiary with respect to any such Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) sent to Trustor at least ten (10) days prior to any action under the UCC shall constitute reasonable notice to Trustor.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Deed of Trust and the Security Agreement as to any portion of the Trust Property constituting “Collateral” (as defined in the Security Agreement), the Security Agreement shall control.

Section 6.3            Fixture Filing.  This Deed of Trust shall also constitute a “fixture filing” for the purposes of the UCC against all of the Trust Property which is or is to become fixtures.  The information provided in this Section 6.3 is provided so that this Deed of Trust shall comply with the requirements of the UCC for a deed of trust instrument to be filed as a financing statement.  Trustor is the “Debtor” and its name and mailing address are set forth in the preamble of this Deed of Trust immediately preceding Article 1.  Beneficiary is the “Secured Party” and its name and mailing address from which information concerning the security interest granted herein may be obtained are also set forth in the preamble of this Deed of Trust immediately preceding Article 1.  A statement describing the portion of the Trust Property comprising the fixtures hereby secured is set forth in Section 1.1(i) of this Deed of Trust.  Trustor represents and warrants to Beneficiary that Trustor is the record owner of the Trust Property and the organizational identification number of Trustor is 3372677.

Section 7.12         Entire Agreement.  This Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Beneficiary and Trustor relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.  There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

Section 7.13         Beneficiary as Agent; Successor Agents.

(a)   Agent has been appointed to act as Agent hereunder by the other Secured Parties.  Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of the Trust Property) in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, any related agency agreement among Agent and the other Secured Parties (collectively, as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or replaced from time to time, the “Agency Documents”) and this Deed of Trust.  Trustor and all other Persons shall be entitled to rely on releases, waivers, consents, approvals, notifications and other acts of Agent, without inquiry into the existence of required consents or approvals of the Secured Parties therefor.

(b)   Beneficiary shall at all times be the same Person that is Agent under the Agency Documents.  Written notice of resignation by Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute notice of resignation as Agent under this Deed of Trust.  Removal of Agent pursuant to any provision of the Agency Documents shall also constitute removal as Agent under this Deed of Trust.  Appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to the Agency Documents shall also constitute appointment of a successor Agent under this Deed of Trust.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent under the Agency Documents, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent as the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust, and the retiring or removed Agent shall promptly (i) assign and transfer to such successor Agent all of its right, title and interest in and to this Deed of Trust and the Trust Property, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent such assignments and amendments and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such

10




successor Agent of the liens and security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Deed of Trust.  After any retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Deed of Trust and the Agency Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Deed of Trust while it was Agent hereunder.

ARTICLE 8
LOCAL LAW PROVISIONS

Section 8.1            InspectionWithout limiting the generality of the foregoing, Trustor agrees that the Secured Parties will have the same right, power and authority to enter and inspect the Premises as is granted to a secured lender under California Civil Code § 2929.5, and that Beneficiary will have the right to appoint a receiver to enter and inspect the Premises at reasonable times and after reasonable notice to the extent such authority is provided under applicable law, including the authority given to the Beneficiary under California Code of Civil Procedure § 564(c).

Section 8.2            Environmental ProvisionsWithout limiting any other rights or remedies of the Beneficiary or any other Secured Party, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to environmental matters, including without limitation, Sections 3.06 of the Credit Agreement, are “environmental provisions,” as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure § 736(f)(2), made by Trustor relating to the real property security.  Trustor, the Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties intend for the foregoing sections to serve as the Beneficiary’s and the other Secured Parties’ written demand and Trustor’s response concerning the environmental condition of the Premises as required by California Code of Civil Procedure § 726.5.  To the extent that any of Trustor’s obligations hereunder are not made valid and enforceable under California Code of Civil Procedure § 736(a), such obligations shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be enforceable under the laws of the State of California other than California Code of Civil Procedure § 736, as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure § 736(d).

Section 8.3            Remedies.

(a)   Where the Trust Property consists of real property and personal property, any reinstatement of the obligation secured hereby, following default and an election by the Beneficiary to accelerate the maturity of said obligation, which is made by Trustor or any other person or entity permitted to exercise the right of reinstatement under Section 2924c of the California Civil Code or any successor statute, shall, in accordance with the terms of Section 9604(a)(3)(C) of the UCC, not prohibit the Beneficiary from conducting a sale or other disposition of any personal property or fixtures or from otherwise proceeding against or continuing to proceed against any personal property or fixtures in any manner permitted by the UCC; nor shall any such reinstatement invalidate, rescind or otherwise affect any sale, disposition or other proceeding held, conducted or instituted with respect to any personal property or fixtures prior to such reinstatement or pending at the time of such reinstatement.  Any sums paid to Beneficiary in effecting any reinstatement pursuant to Section 2924c of the California Civil Code shall be applied to the Secured Obligations and to the Beneficiary’s and Trustee’s reasonable costs and expenses in the manner required by Section 2924c.

(b)   Should the Beneficiary elect to sell any portion of the Trust Property which is real property or which is personal property or fixtures that Beneficiary has elected under Section 9604(a)(1)(B) of the UCC to sell together with real property in accordance with the laws governing a sale of real property, the Beneficiary or the Trustee shall give such notice of default and election to sell as may then be required by law.  Thereafter, upon the expiration of such time and the giving of such notice of sale as may then be required by law, and without the necessity of any demand on Trustor, the Trustee, at the time and place specified in the notice of sale, shall sell said real property or part thereof at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States.  The Trustee may, and upon request of

11




the Beneficiary shall, from time to time, postpone any sale hereunder by public announcement thereof at the time and place noticed therefor.

(c)   If the Trust Property consists of several lots, parcels or items of Trust Property, the Beneficiary may:  (i) designate the order in which such lots, parcels or items shall be offered for sale or sold, or (ii) elect to sell such lots, parcels or items through a single sale, or through two or more successive sales, or in any other manner the Beneficiary deems in its best interest.  Should the Beneficiary desire that more than one sale or other disposition of the Trust Property be conducted, the Beneficiary may, at its option, cause the same to be conducted simultaneously, or successively, on the same day, or at such different days or times and in such order as the Beneficiary may deem to be in its best interests, and no such sale shall terminate or otherwise affect the lien of this Deed of Trust on any part of the Trust Property not sold until all Secured Obligations have been fully paid and the other conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement for release of liens have been satisfied.  In the event the Beneficiary elects to dispose of the Trust Property through more than one sale, Trustor agrees to pay the costs and expenses of each such sale and of any judicial proceedings wherein the same may be made, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee and the Beneficiary, their agents and counsel, and to pay all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee or Beneficiary in connection with such sale or sales, together with interest on all such advances made by the Trustee or Beneficiary at the lower of the Default Rate and the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by the Trustee or Beneficiary.

Section 8.4            Additional Provisions.

(a)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736 shall not be waived, limited or otherwise adversely affected by virtue of a full or partial credit bid upon foreclosure of this Deed of Trust.

(b)   GRANTOR PLEASE NOTE:  IN THE EVENT OF YOUR DEFAULT, THIS DEED OF TRUST AND APPLICABLE LAW PERMITS THE TRUSTEE TO SELL THE TRUST PROPERTY AT A SALE HELD WITHOUT SUPERVISION BY ANY COURT AFTER EXPIRATION OF A PERIOD PRESCRIBED BY LAW.  UNLESS YOU PROVIDE AN ADDRESS FOR THE GIVING OF NOTICE, YOU MAY NOT BE ENTITLED TO OTHER NOTICE OF THE COMMENCEMENT OF SALE PROCEEDINGS.  BY EXECUTION OF THIS DEED OF TRUST, YOU CONSENT TO THIS PROCEDURE.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING IT, YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR LEGAL ADVISOR.  BENEFICIARY AND TRUSTEE URGE YOU TO GIVE BENEFICIARY PROMPT NOTICE OF ANY CHANGE IN YOUR ADDRESS SO THAT YOU MAY RECEIVE ANY NOTICE OF DEFAULT AND NOTICE OF SALE GIVEN PURSUANT TO THIS DEED OF TRUST.

(c)   Without limitation of the foregoing, Trustor hereby specifically, unconditionally and irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner granted under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.225(a), which provides for allocation of condemnation proceeds between a property owner and a lienholder, and any other law or successor statute of similar import.

Section 8.5            WaiversTrustor, in addition to, and without limitation of any other waivers contained in this Deed of Trust, unconditionally waives any defense to the enforcement of this Deed of Trust, including:

(a)   All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest and notices of dishonor with respect to the Secured Obligations, and notices of acceptance of this Deed of Trust;

(b)   Any right to require the Beneficiary to proceed against Borrower or any guarantor at any time or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by the Beneficiary at any time or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever at any time;

12




(c)   The defense of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Trustor hereunder, the liability of any of the Borrower or any guarantor under the Loan Documents, or the enforcement hereof, to the extent permitted by law;

(d)   Any defense arising by reason of any invalidity or unenforceability of (or any limitation of liability in) any of the Loan Documents or any disability of Trustor or any guarantor or of any manner in which Beneficiary has exercised its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, or by any cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Trustor or the Borrower or any guarantor;

(e)   Without limitation on clause (d) above, any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Trustor or the Borrower or any principal of Trustor or the Borrower or any defect in the formation of Trustor or the Borrower or any principal of Trustor or the Borrower;

(f)    Any defense based upon the application by Trustor or the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans for purposes other than the purposes represented by Trustor or the Borrower to the Beneficiary or intended or understood by the Beneficiary or Trustor;

(g)   Any defense based upon an election of remedies by the Beneficiary, including any election to proceed by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of any security, whether real property or personal property security, or by deed in lieu thereof, and whether or not every aspect of any foreclosure sale is commercially reasonable, or any election of remedies, including remedies relating to real property or personal property security, which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of Trustor or the rights of Trustor to proceed against any of the Borrower or any guarantor for reimbursement, or both (including, without limitation, California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726);

(h)   Any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other aspects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(i)    Any defense based upon the Beneficiary’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute;

(j)    Any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;

(k)   Any duty of the Beneficiary to advise Trustor of any information known to the Beneficiary regarding the financial condition of the Borrower and all other circumstances affecting the Borrower’s ability to perform its obligations to the Beneficiary, it being agreed that Trustor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed regarding such condition or any such circumstances;

(l)    Any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnity, or any right to enforce any remedy which the Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower or any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by the Beneficiary; and

(m)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, any rights and benefits which might otherwise be available to Trustor under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899, and 3433.

Section 8.6            Subrogation.  Trustor understands that the exercise by the Beneficiary of certain rights and remedies may affect or eliminate Trustor’s right of subrogation against the Borrower

13




or any guarantor and that Trustor may therefore incur partially or totally nonreimbursable liability hereunder.  Nevertheless, Trustor hereby authorizes and empowers Beneficiary, its successors, endorsees and assigns, to exercise in its or their sole discretion, any rights and remedies, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, it being the purpose and intent of Trustor that the obligations hereunder shall be absolute, continuing, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed of Trust to the contrary, Trustor hereby subordinates to the repayment in full of all of the Borrower’s and each other obligor’s obligations under the Loan Documents any claim or other rights which Trustor may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any guarantor of all or any of the obligations of the Borrower hereunder that arise from the existence or performance of such of the Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Beneficiary against the Borrower or any Collateral which the Beneficiary now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights.  Trustor understands that: (i) Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure generally prohibits a deficiency judgment against a borrower after a non-judicial foreclosure; (ii) Trustor’s subrogation rights may be destroyed by a non-judicial foreclosure under the Deed of Trust (because Trustor may not be able to pursue the Borrower for a deficiency judgment by reason of the application of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure); and (iii) under Union Bank v. Gradsky, 265 Cal. App. 2nd 40 (1968), a lender may be estopped from pursuing a guarantor for a deficiency judgment after a non-judicial foreclosure (on the theory that a guarantor should be exonerated if a lender elects a remedy that eliminates the guarantor’s subrogation rights) absent an explicit waiver.  Without limitation on the generality of the other waivers contained in this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby waives (A) the defense that might otherwise be available under Gradsky, supra (or any similar judicial decision or statute) in the event the Beneficiary pursues a non-judicial foreclosure, and (B) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.  In addition, Trustor waives all rights and defenses that Trustor may have because the debtor’s debt is secured by real property.  This means, among other things that the creditor may collect from the guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the debtor, and if the creditor forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the debtor:  (i) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which the collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (ii) the creditor may collect from the guarantor even if the creditor, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right the guarantor may have to collect from the debtor.  This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the guarantor may have because the debtor’s debt is secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

Section 8.7            Independent Obligations.  The obligations of Trustor hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Borrower and, in the event of any default hereunder, a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Trustor to foreclose this Deed of Trust whether or not Trustor is the alter ego of the Borrower and whether or not the Borrower is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against the Borrower.  The Beneficiary’s rights hereunder shall not be exhausted until all of the Secured Obligations have been fully paid and performed.

Section 8.8            Subordination.  Without limitation on the waiver and release contained above: (i) Trustor subordinates all present and future indebtedness owing by the Borrower to Trustor to the obligations at any time owing by the Borrower to the Beneficiary under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (ii) Trustor agrees to make no claim on such indebtedness until all obligations

14




of Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been fully discharged.  Trustor further agrees not to assign all or any part of such indebtedness unless the Beneficiary is given prior notice and such assignment is expressly made subject to the terms of this Deed of Trust.  If the Beneficiary so requests, (a) all instruments evidencing such indebtedness shall be duly endorsed and delivered to the Beneficiary,  (b) all security for such indebtedness shall be duly assigned and delivered to the Beneficiary, (c) such indebtedness shall be enforced, collected and held by Trustor as trustee for the Beneficiary and shall be paid over to the Beneficiary on account of the Secured Obligations but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Trustor under the other provisions of this Deed of Trust, and (d) Trustor shall execute, file and record such documents and instruments and take such other action as the Beneficiary deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce the Beneficiary’s rights in and to such indebtedness and any security therefor.  If Trustor fails to take any such action, the Beneficiary, as attorney-in-fact for Trustor, is hereby authorized to do so in the name of Trustor.  The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.

Section 8.9            Other Collateral.  Trustor acknowledges that this Deed of Trust is one of a number of mortgages, deeds of trust and other security documents (“Other Security Instruments”) that secure the Secured Obligations and the obligations of the Borrower and other obligors under the Loan Documents (the “Other Obligations”).  Trustor agrees that the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever of the Beneficiary, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the lien hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance by the Beneficiary of any security for or guarantees of the Secured Obligations and/or the Other Obligations, or by any failure, neglect or omission on the part of the Beneficiary to realize upon or protect any Obligation or Other Obligation or any collateral security therefor including the Other Security Instruments.  The lien hereof shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by any release (except as to the Premises released), sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement, renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, changing, modification or disposition of any of the Secured Obligations or Other Obligations or of any of the collateral security therefor, including the Other Security Instruments or of any guarantee thereof, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Beneficiary may at its discretion foreclose, exercise any power of sale, or exercise any other remedy available to it under any or all of the Other Security Instruments without first exercising or enforcing any of its rights and remedies hereunder.  Such exercise of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under any or all of the Other Security Instruments shall not in any manner impair the indebtedness hereby secured or the lien of this Deed of Trust and any exercise of the rights or remedies of the Beneficiary hereunder shall not impair the lien of any of the Other Security Instruments or any of the Trustee’s or Beneficiary’s rights and remedies thereunder.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor specifically consents and agrees the Beneficiary may exercise its rights and remedies hereunder and under the Other Security Instruments separately or concurrently and in any order that it may deem appropriate and waives any rights of subrogation.

Section 8.10         Trustee.  The Trustee accepts appointment hereunder when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record.  The Beneficiary may remove the Trustee at any time or from time to time and appoint a successor trustee, and upon such appointment, all powers, duties, rights and authority of Trustee shall thereupon become vested in such successor.  Such substitute trustee shall be appointed in any manner permitted or authorized by applicable law, including without limitation by written instrument duly recorded in the county or counties where the real property encumbered hereby is located, which appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of the Beneficiary or in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and Trustor shall pay, reasonable and customary compensation to the Trustee for its services rendered hereunder after any Event of Default and reimbursement to the Trustee for its expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection herewith or the exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder.

15




Section 8.11         Conflict.  In the event of any conflict between any provision set forth in this Article 8 and any other provision in this Deed of Trust, the provision in this Article 8 shall control.

(e)        The Transaction Liens on all Personal Property Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor (i) have been validly created, (ii) will attach to each item of such Collateral on the Effective Date (or, if such Lien Grantor first obtains rights

(i)    create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Transaction Liens on such Lien Grantor’s Collateral;

(ii)   in the case of Pledged Deposit Accounts (except with respect to Pledged Deposit Accounts containing less than $3,500,000 in the aggregate) and Pledged Investment Property, cause the Administrative Agent to have Control thereof;

(iii)  enable the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties to obtain the full benefits of the Security Documents; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the actions required by the Lien Grantors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section to perfect and ensure the priority of the Liens granted hereunder shall be limited to filings of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, delivering possession of Collateral the security interests in which can be perfected only by taking possession, execution and delivery of Deposit Account Control Agreements and Securities Account Control Agreements and, to the extent any additional actions are required to effect such perfection or priority as a result of a change in law, such actions.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lien Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and file such financing statements or continuation statements without such Lien Grantor’s signature appearing thereon.  Such Lien Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement.  Such Lien Grantor constitutes the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all filings required or so requested for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; and such power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until all the Transaction Liens granted by such Lien Grantor terminate pursuant to Section 15.  The Borrower will pay the costs of, or incidental to, any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other documents recorded or filed pursuant hereto.

(b)        Such Lien Grantor will not (i) change its name or corporate structure, (ii) change its location (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-307) or (iii) become bound, as provided in UCC Section 9-203(d), by a security agreement entered into by another Person as lien grantor, unless it shall have given the Administrative Agent prior notice thereof and delivered a certificate of a Financial Officer with respect thereto in accordance with Section 4(c).

(c)        At least 30 days before it takes any action contemplated by Section 4(b), such Lien Grantor will, at the Borrower’s expense, cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to the effect that (i) all financing statements and amendments or supplements thereto, continuation statements and other documents required to be filed or recorded in order to perfect and protect the Transaction Liens against all creditors of and purchasers from such Lien Grantor after it takes such action (except any continuation statements specified in such certificate that are to be filed more than six months after the date thereof) have been filed or recorded in each office necessary for such purpose, (ii) all fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings or recordations have been paid in full and (iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Required Lenders, such action will not adversely affect the perfection or priority of the Transaction Lien on any Collateral to be owned by such Lien Grantor after it takes such action or the accuracy of such Lien Grantor’s representations and warranties herein relating to such Collateral.

(d)        If any of its Collateral is in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or agent at any time, such Lien Grantor will (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the relevant Transaction Liens, (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent to hold all such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s account subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions (which shall permit such Collateral to be removed by such Lien Grantor in the ordinary course of business until the Administrative Agent notifies such warehouseman, bailee or agent that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified such Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder), (iii) cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to Authenticate a Record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s benefit and (iv) make such Authenticated Record available to the Administrative Agent.

(e)        Such Lien Grantor will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of its Collateral; provided that such Lien Grantor may do any of the foregoing unless (i) doing so would violate a covenant in the Credit Agreement or (ii) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have notified such Lien Grantor that it intends to exercise its rights hereunder and the Lien Grantor’s right

13




to do so is terminated, suspended or otherwise limited.  Concurrently with any sale, lease or other disposition (except a sale or disposition to another Lien Grantor or a lease) permitted by the foregoing proviso, the Transaction Liens on the assets sold or disposed of (but not in any Proceeds arising from such sale or disposition) will cease immediately without any action by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party.  The Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the relevant Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the fact that any asset so sold or disposed of is no longer subject to a Transaction Lien.

(f)         Such Lien Grantor will, promptly upon request, provide to the Administrative Agent all information and evidence concerning such Lien Grantor’s Collateral that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to enable it to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents.

(g)        From time to time upon reasonable request by the Required Lenders, such Lien Grantor will, at the Borrower’s expense, cause to be delivered to the Secured Parties an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to such matters relating to the transactions contemplated hereby as the Required Lenders may reasonably request.

Section 5.  Accounts.  Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a)        Such Lien Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be collected from its account debtors, when due, all amounts owing under its Accounts (including delinquent Accounts, which will be collected in accordance with lawful collection procedures) and will apply all amounts collected thereon, forthwith upon receipt thereof, in accordance with its customary practices.  The costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) of collection, whether incurred by such Lien Grantor or the Administrative Agent, shall be paid by such Lien Grantor.

(b)        If payments with respect to any of such Lien Grantor’s Accounts are received in a lockbox or similar account, such Lien Grantor will (i) at all times cause such account to be a Controlled Deposit Account and (ii) cause the relevant depositary bank to subordinate to the relevant Transaction Lien all its claims to such account (except its right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto).  The Administrative Agent will instruct the relevant depositary bank to transfer funds credited to any such account, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, to a Controlled Deposit Account designated by such Lien Grantor; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified such Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder, the Administrative

14




Agent may designate the Controlled Deposit Account to which such funds are transferred.

(c)        If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified such Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder, such Lien Grantor will, if requested to do so by the Administrative Agent, promptly notify (and such Lien Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent so to notify) each account debtor in respect of any of its Accounts that such Accounts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Accounts are to be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee.

Section 6.  Securities Accounts.  Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a)        Security Entitlements.  On the Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will, with respect to each Security Entitlement then owned by it, enter into (and cause the relevant Securities Intermediary to enter into) a Securities Account Control Agreement in respect of such Security Entitlement and the Securities Account to which the underlying Financial Asset is credited and will deliver such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Administrative Agent (which shall enter into the same).  Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other Security Entitlement, such Lien Grantor will, as promptly as practicable, cause the underlying Financial Asset to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account.

(b)        Perfection as to Security Entitlements.  So long as the Financial Asset underlying any Security Entitlement owned by such Lien Grantor is credited to a Controlled Securities Account, the Transaction Lien on such Security Entitlement will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except Liens and rights of the relevant Securities Intermediary that are Permitted Liens), the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Security Entitlement and no action based on an adverse claim to such Security Entitlement or such Financial Asset, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, may be asserted against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party.

(c)        Agreement as to Applicable Jurisdiction.  In respect of all Security Entitlements owned by such Lien Grantor, and all Securities Accounts to which the related Financial Assets are credited, the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 8-110(e)) will at all times be located in the United States.

15




Section 7.  Controlled Deposit Accounts.  Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a)        Except for cash deposited in Deposit Accounts not included in the Collateral or distributed to its shareholders, all cash owned by such Lien Grantor will be deposited, upon or promptly after the receipt thereof, in one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts. Each Controlled Deposit Account will be operated as provided in Section 8.

(b)        In respect of each Controlled Deposit Account, the Depositary Bank’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-304) will at all times be a jurisdiction in which Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect.

(c)        So long as the Administrative Agent has Control of a Controlled Deposit Account, the Transaction Lien on such Controlled Deposit Account will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except the Depositary Bank’s right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto).

Section 8.  Operation of Collateral Accounts. (a) All Cash Distributions received with respect to assets held in any Collateral Account shall be deposited therein promptly upon receipt thereof.

(b)        Funds held in any Controlled Securities Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the relevant Lien Grantor shall request from time to time; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified the relevant Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent may select such Permitted Investments.

(c)        Funds held in any Controlled Deposit Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the relevant Lien Grantor shall request from time to time; provided that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified the relevant Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent may select such Permitted Investments.

(d)        With respect to each Collateral Account, the Administrative Agent will instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank that the relevant Lien Grantor may withdraw, or direct the disposition of, funds held therein unless and until the Administrative Agent rescinds such instruction.  The Administrative Agent will not rescind such instructions unless an Event of

16




Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified the relevant Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder.

(e)        If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified the relevant Lien Grantor of its intent to exercise its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent may (i) retain, or instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank to retain, all cash and investments then held in any Collateral Account, (ii) liquidate, or instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank to liquidate, any or all investments held therein and/or (iii) withdraw any amounts held therein and apply such amounts as provided in Section 11.

(f)         If immediately available cash on deposit in any Collateral Account is not sufficient to make any distribution or withdrawal to be made pursuant hereto, the Administrative Agent will cause to be liquidated, as promptly as practicable, such investments held in or credited to such Collateral Account as shall be required to obtain sufficient cash to make such distribution or withdrawal and, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such distribution or withdrawal shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place.

Section 9.  Certain Cash Distributions.  Cash Distributions with respect to assets held in a Collateral Account shall be deposited and held therein, or withdrawn therefrom, as provided in Section 8.  Cash Distributions with respect to any Pledged Debt that is not held in a Collateral Account (whether held in the name of a Lien Grantor or in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee) shall be deposited, promptly upon receipt thereof, in a Controlled Deposit Account of the relevant Lien Grantor; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lien Grantors of its intent to exercise its rights under the Security Documents, the Administrative Agent may deposit, or direct the recipient thereof to deposit, each such Cash Distribution in a Controlled Deposit Account.

Section 10.  Remedies upon Event of Default.  (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Security Documents.

(b)        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Personal Property Collateral and, in addition, the Administrative Agent may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, withdraw

17




all cash held in the Collateral Accounts and apply such cash as provided in Section 11 and, if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations in full, sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof.  Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the relevant Lien Grantor(s) as required by Section 12.  The foregoing provisions of this subsection shall apply to Real Property Collateral only to the extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of any applicable Mortgage or other document.

Section 11.  Application of Proceeds.  (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may apply (i) any cash held in the Collateral Accounts and (ii) the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, in the following order of priorities:

first,     to pay the expenses of such sale or other disposition, including reasonable compensation to agents of and counsel for the Administrative Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Security Documents, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement;

second,  to pay the unpaid principal of the Secured Obligations ratably (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 11(b)), until payment in full of the principal of all Secured Obligations shall have been made (or so provided for);

third,   to pay ratably all interest (including Post-Petition Interest) on the Secured Obligations payable under the Credit Agreement, until payment in full of all such interest and fees shall have been made;

fourth, to pay all other Secured Obligations ratably (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 11(b)), until payment in full of all such other Secured Obligations shall have been made (or so provided for); and

finally, to pay to the relevant Lien Grantor, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, any surplus then remaining from the proceeds of the Collateral owned by it;

provided that Collateral and any proceeds thereof shall be applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses first, second, third and fourth only to the extent permitted by the limitation in Section 2(i) of the Guarantee Agreement.  The Administrative Agent may make such distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof.

18




(b)        If at any time any portion of any monies collected or received by the Administrative Agent would, but for the provisions of this Section 11(b), be payable pursuant to Section 11(a) in respect of a Contingent Secured Obligation, the Administrative Agent shall not apply any monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation but instead shall request the holder thereof, at least 10 days before each proposed distribution hereunder, to notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum amount of such Contingent Secured Obligation if then ascertainable.  If the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation does not notify the Administrative Agent of the maximum ascertainable amount thereof at least two Business Days before such distribution, such holder will not be entitled to share in such distribution.  If such holder does so notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum ascertainable amount thereof, the Administrative Agent will allocate to such holder a portion of the monies to be distributed in such distribution, calculated as if such Contingent Secured Obligation were outstanding in such maximum ascertainable amount.  However, the Administrative Agent will not apply such portion of such monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation, but instead will hold such monies or invest such monies in Permitted Investments.  All such monies and Permitted Investments and all proceeds thereof will constitute Collateral hereunder, but will be subject to distribution in accordance with this Section 11(b) rather than Section 11(a).  The Administrative Agent will hold all such monies and Permitted Investments and the net proceeds thereof in trust until all or part of such Contingent Secured Obligation becomes a Non-Contingent Secured Obligation, whereupon the Administrative Agent at the request of the relevant Secured Party will apply the amount so held in trust to pay such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation; provided that, if the other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 11(a) (i.e., clause second or fourth) were not paid in full, the Administrative Agent will apply the amount so held in trust to pay the same percentage of such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation as the percentage of such other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 11(a).  If (i) the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation shall advise the Administrative Agent that no portion thereof remains in the category of a Contingent Secured Obligation and (ii) the Administrative Agent still holds any amount held in trust pursuant to this Section 11(b) in respect of such Contingent Secured Obligation (after paying all amounts payable pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any portions thereof that became Non-Contingent Secured Obligations), such remaining amount will be applied by the Administrative Agent in the order of priorities set forth in Section 11(a).

(c)        In making the payments and allocations required by this Section, the Administrative Agent may rely upon information supplied to it pursuant to Section 14(c).  All distributions made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be final (except in the event of manifest error) and the

19




Administrative Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Secured Party of any amount distributed to it.

Section 12.  Authority to Administer Collateral.  Each Lien Grantor irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Lien Grantor, any Secured Party or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Borrower’s expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lien Grantor of its intent to enforce its security interest in such Lien Grantor’s Collateral, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of such Lien Grantor’s Collateral:

(a)           to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

(b)           to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

(c)           to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and

(d)           to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto;

provided that, except in the case of Personal Property Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Administrative Agent will give the relevant Lien Grantor at least ten days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof will be made. Any such notice shall (i) contain the information specified in UCC Section 9-613, (ii) be Authenticated and (iii) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to UCC Section 9-611(c); provided that, if the Administrative Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC.

Section 13.  Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral.  Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof, the Administrative Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee or any income therefrom or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other

20




rights pertaining thereto.  The Administrative Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 14.  General Provisions Concerning the Administrative Agent.

(a)        The provisions of Article 8 of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and shall be binding upon all Lien Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Security Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Security Documents that the Administrative Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement), and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Transaction Lien, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under the Security Documents. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Secured Party.

(b)        Sub-Agents and Related Parties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through one or more sub-agents appointed by it.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through its Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of Section 13 and this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent.

21




(c)        Information as to Secured Obligations and Actions by Secured Parties.  For all purposes of the Security Documents, including determining the amounts of the Secured Obligations and whether a Secured Obligation is a Contingent Secured Obligation or not, or whether any action has been taken under any Secured Agreement, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely on information from (i) its own records for information as to the Lender Parties, their Secured Obligations and actions taken by them, (ii) any Secured Party (or any trustee, agent or similar representative) for information as to its Secured Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained such information from its own records, and (iii) the Borrower, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources.

(d)        Refusal to Act.  The Administrative Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Secured Parties or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of any Security Document, (ii) may expose the Administrative Agent to liability (unless the Administrative Agent shall have been indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Secured Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Secured Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction.

(e)        Copies of Certain Notices.  Within two Business Days after it receives or sends any notice referred to in this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall send to the Lenders and each Secured Party Requesting Notice, copies of any notice given by the Administrative Agent to any Lien Grantor, or received by it from any Lien Grantor, pursuant to Section 10, 11, 12 or 15.

Section 15.  Termination of Transaction Liens; Release of Collateral.  (a) The Transaction Liens granted by each Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the satisfaction of all of the Release Conditions and (ii) the satisfaction of all of the Ratings Release Conditions (subject to reinstatement as set forth in Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement).

(b)        At any time before the Transaction Liens granted by all the Lien Grantors pursuant to this Agreement terminate, the Administrative Agent may, at the written request of the Borrower, (i) release any Collateral (but not all or substantially all the Collateral) with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or (ii) release all or substantially all the Collateral with the prior written consent of all Lenders.

(c)        The Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon a certificate of a Financial Officer of the Borrower as to whether all of the Ratings

22




Release Conditions are satisfied.  Upon any termination of a Transaction Lien or release of Collateral, the Administrative Agent will, at the expense of the relevant Lien Grantor, execute and deliver to such Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of such Transaction Lien or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.

Section 16.  Additional Lien Grantors.  Any Subsidiary may become a party hereto by signing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Security Agreement Supplement, whereupon such Subsidiary shall become a “Lien Grantor” as defined herein.

Section 17.  Notices.  Each notice, request or other communication given to any party hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement, and in the case of any such notice, request or other communication to a Lien Grantor, shall be given to it in care of the Borrower.Section 18.  No Implied Waivers; Remedies Not Exclusive.  No failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right or remedy under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies specified in the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 19.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties.  If all or any part of any Secured Party’s interest in any Secured Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred, the transferor’s rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall be automatically transferred with such obligation.  This Agreement shall be binding on the Lien Grantors and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 20.  Amendments and Waivers.  Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended, modified or terminated except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, with the consent of such Lenders as are required to consent thereto under Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.  No such waiver, amendment or modification shall (i) be binding upon any Lien Grantor, except with its written consent, or (ii) affect the rights of a Secured Party (other than a Lender) hereunder more adversely than it affects the comparable rights of the Lenders hereunder, without the consent of such Secured Party.

23




Section 21Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.  (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York are governed by the laws of such jurisdiction.

(b)        Each of the Lien Grantors irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any relevant appellate court, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against any Lien Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c)        Each of the Lien Grantors irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in subsection (b) of this Section.  Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

(d)        Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.  Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 22.  Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY

24




HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 23.  Use of English Language.  Any translation of this Agreement into another language shall have no interpretive effect. All documents or notices to be delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement shall be in the English language or, if any such document or notice is not in the English language, accompanied by an English translation thereof, and the English language version of any such document or notice shall control for purposes hereof.

Section 24.  Severability.  If any provision of any Loan Document is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent (but only to the extent) of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, (ii) the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible and (iii) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any such provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 25.  Counterparts, Integration, Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement (i) will become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have signed this Agreement and received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
